In addition, the Half-Life 2 titles now feature cross-platform support for Steam Cloud, allowing players to save their game progress on one computer, then seamlessly resume from that save point on another computer (Mac or PC).

In celebration of the launch on Mac, all Half-Life 2 games are available for 30 per cent off their regular price.

Woo! I've never really been that inclined to carry on with Half-Life 2 as my pc (Dell) starts to sound like a jet taking off whenever I play HL2. But this is great! It's on the download as I speak for my mac :D
